it's jack what you're saying. >> where's the deficit there? last night bill o'reilly kept pushing his case that there's something wrong with having a woman president and finally he found an answer. >> there's got to be a down side for a woman. do you know one? >> i'm having a tough time with this one, too, bill. i think it depends on the individual. of course there's a down side to certain individual women. >> but in general, you both don't see any gender deficiency to lead the free world? >> well, look, i can actually think of something. >> oh, good. if. >> if you can take your example of men being macho. a woman might feel like she needs to act macho, for example, maybe feel like she had to take, vote for, say, the iraq war. i'm just going to say theoretically, to make it look like she would be a tough leader when she was in office and that she's not afraid to use military force. >> that's what hillary clinton did. >> yes. >> oh, yeah, hillary clinton vote for the iraq war that put it over the top. there were 77 votes in the senate authorizi

but it gets better, how much would this reduce the deficit? because we all know nothing animates the republican party more than reducing the deficit. what's that you say? oh, it would increase the deficit by $74 billion over 10 years. impossible. of course, this bill is not going to become law. it is very instructive as a reminder that any actual commitment to legislating our complex business an teen health insurance regime will help create disruptions. the republican strategy to kill obama care has been to point to the disruptions it has created and it may create and say the end of the world is nye. if they ever got around to implementing their own plan, that would have its own disruptions. this friday, house majority leader eric cantor will meet with leaders to work on putting together what will be billed as the house republican alternative to obama care. here's my prediction. he could come out of that meeting with two dozen alternatives, but the republican party will actually get behind exactly none of them. not in any real way. that would

up to that point they did not vote on the total budget, deficit or surplus if there was one. this is to get them to vote for a budget resolution one place, one time and then run for election on your vote. that stopped. they didn't want to vote for this, and there is no penalty for not voting in it. and then congress doesn't feel they have any obligation to pass one of its own. the process needs to be completely redone. it's not shown that anyone has the testicular fortitude to do it. >> the debt limit is not the place to be having a discussion wherof how you spend your money. this is interesting to me that conservative members of congress are having their cake and eating it, but at the same time not able to prioritize spending the way they would actually like. >> well, let's remember that the conservative members like liberal members can't make decisions unilaterally. i'm sure if the conservatives had the power with the hype see. they probably have trouble getting the support with the reading of the lord's prayer these days. but when it comes to taxes and budget and taxes deb
